NUCLEAR REGULATORY 
COMMISSION 
10 CFR Part 72 
[Docket No. PRM–72–8; NRC–2018–0017] 
Requirements for the Storage of Spent 
Nuclear Fuel 
AGENCY : Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission. 
ACTION : Petition for rulemaking; denial. 
SUMMARY : The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (NRC) is denying a petition for rulemaking (PRM), submitted by Raymond Lutz and Citizens Oversight, Inc. (the petitioners), dated January 2, 2018. The petitioners requested that the NRC amend its regulations regarding spent nuclear fuel storage systems to embrace the Hardened Extended-life Local Monitored Surface Storage (HELMS) approach and identified multiple revisions to accommodate such an approach. The NRC is denying the petition because the petitioners do not present information that supports the requested changes to the regulations or that provides substantial increase in the overall protection of occupational or public health and safety. The NRC’s current regulations and oversight activities continue to provide for the adequate protection of public health and safety and to promote the common defense and security. 
DATES : The docket for PRM–72–8 is
